Displaying distinct parameters

In a dashboard filter, you can ensure that parameters show a distinct 'key':'value' pair.

This option ensures that each selection is processed by the filter as a distinct 'key':'value' pair. By default, the selections are passed as a 'key':'list of values'.

This option enables a single filter to be potentially used for multiple purposes.

  1. Open a dashboard in Edit mode and hover over a filter that is already added to the dashboard until the controls appear on the top right.
  2. Click the Gear icon.
    The Settings modal window appears.
  3. In the Settings modal window, under Display Settings tab, check the Emit distinct parameters for each item selected option.
  4. Click APPLY.
